Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Crucial Littlewoods meeting tomorrow

The future of the Littlewoods football pools and retail empire could be decided tomorrow at a crucial meeting of the 32 Moores family shareholders who control the group. The two-day gathering will decide whether to progress the planned pounds 1.2bn bid from former chief executive Barry Dale. It comes ahead of next week's emergency shareholders' meeting where Mr Dale will need a majority vote to gain acess to the books and turn his indicative offer into a full-scale bid.
